Question

(Q6) Decide if the function is an exponential function. If it is, state the initial value and the base. y= -4.8·4^x

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation takes the form  $y=a*b^x$  where

1. a is the initial value ( a ≠ 0), and
2. b is the base ( b ≠ 1)

The equation given in the problem can be written as  $y=-4.8*4^x$, so it is an exponential equation,  where a = -4.8 and b = 4.

Thus we can say that the initial value = -4.8 and the base is 4

The correct answer is  D
